At its core, it seems like a really decent game. Very cool puzzle mechanics, neat variations, and solid level design that introduces the concepts one-by-one and ramps the difficulty up gradually. For me, though, it is just way too lacking in any sort of polish or pizazz: no music, no sounds, simple graphics, etc. Just feels very drab: not even the buttons on the menu pop or highlight! I think this game can be something really good, but needs some extra time in the oven to make it shiny and feel good to play.

Very competitive

Very nice game. I actually beat level 12 in one jump. Gotta press Q at the right time.

Edit: Pressing Q once doesn't work. Gotta do it when you start moving towards the door.

Edit 2: I don't like the way the dude bounces around when he's on a positive magnet block with negative boots. 4/5.

Thanks for bringing the magnet issue to our attention! We'll try to fix that ASAP! Thanks for playing and taking the time to leave a review!

That was a heckin awesome game, man! At one point I turned my grav boots off on level 9 to launch to the door from the blue cube, but when I let go Mr. spaceman was subjected to some brief torture as he shook up and down rapidly a few times before being launched straight down at max speed. That was the only glitch I encountered.

Sidenote on that glitch; it was super easy to get the game to break when I messed around with changing the polarity of the boots and jumping off the platforms on level 9.

I am a bit bugged that when you reverse polarity instead of being pushed away gradually you snap outside the circle, but that's alright for what the game is.

EDIT: After some more playing around on level 9, I've discovered that you can't walk left around the magnetic cubes with the magnetism on, or at least I can't it makes him snap around but stay on the side he's on when attempting to turn the corner, until I go right or turn the magnetism off to go left.
I've also discovered that it takes some trying to get a glitch to happen sometimes when just switching between polarities between the cubes.

EDIT Sidenote: I really would like to see more of this kind of game, maybe a sequel with a bit more advanced physics? I do enjoy glitches, up until they end up game-breaking, which none of these glitches were.

good
but sometimes i do weird stuff and the physics engine just gives up
